Daniel Sommer - Lost Threads (2025) [Official Digital Download]

Danish drummer Daniel Sommer completes his internationally acclaimed Nordic Trilogy (featured in Stereogum, Downbeat Magazine, Bandcamp’s Best of Jazz and more…) with the release of Lost Threads on March 21st, 2025, via April Records.

Following As Time Passes and Sounds & Sequences, the highly anticipated third chapter features Finnish pianist Artturi Rönkä and Swedish bassist Thommy Andersson. Together, the trio embarks on a deeply introspective exploration of time, space, and their shared Nordic spirit of improvisation.

Described by Sommer as “a process-oriented project prioritizing musical risk and flow,” the Nordic Trilogy has sought to illuminate Nordic approaches to composition and improvisation across generational and stylistic divides. With Lost Threads, this vision culminates in a collection of music that embraces vulnerability, spontaneity, and togetherness.

“Most of the music emerged as Daniel and I improvised in my living room in Helsinki,” Rönkä recalls. “Later, when Thommy joined us for a couple of concerts and recording sessions… his highly personal way of playing the bass inspired Daniel and me to try to develop the music in further, unexpected directions.”
